Kiloshello inetpro 07:34
grembleGood afternoon kulelu88 11:44
grembleYou're here early11:44
kulelu88hey gremble . Yeah, trying to learn some stuff about postfix11:44
grembleGoing to try and get into email? :P11:45
kulelu88somewhat yeah. I am trying to figure out how to make postfix talk to python11:46
grembleOh alright. Interesting11:46
kulelu88hows the studies gremble 12:18
grembleGoing lazily. Went through my work, but now I lack the motivation to go through it again because it is no longer interesting. I wish I could get exam-like question sets, but the lecturers are so stingy with old exams12:22
gremblekulelu88: Do you know https://soundcloud.com/blacktigersexmachine?12:24
kulelu88try studynoteswiki for old exams12:25
kulelu88I know they got copyright violations letters from unisa for keeping old exams12:26
grembleOh, thanks for this site12:29
grembleThis is pretty cool12:29
gremble:o12:29
kulelu88time to launch my own exam-sharing site12:30
grembleI think so12:30
grembleThis one is missing exams12:31
kulelu88really brutal name also: examshare.info :d12:31
grembleWhat you do is you get the exams in pdf, then you just extract the questions as individual parts12:31
grembleSo that you don't actually violate copyright12:31
grembleThen you have a question database from which you can either model more questions, or just combine them to make novel exams12:31
kulelu88that is actually a really sick idea12:32
kulelu88extraction will be hard though12:32
grembleYup12:32
grembleBut I am sure you can employ some computer vision techniques12:32
grembleYou only need a few, then you could probably make an algorithm to make new questions12:33
gremblefor mathematics at least12:33
grembleI don't know about other subjects12:33
grembleFor BCom subjects I suspect it will be harder12:33
kulelu88I don't think I'll bother to go that far. Just extracting the questions will be enough12:34
gremble:P12:34
grembleWell there you go then12:34
kulelu88want to be co-founder? :D12:35
grembleHaha I would, but I am not sure what I would be bringing to the table other than my charm. I don't have the coding expertise to even attempt such a project12:37
kulelu88the most difficult part would be extraction12:40
kulelu88the rest if crud stuff12:40
grembleGetting actual papers is not that easy either.12:41
grembleAnd sorting them against topic12:41
grembleThat is what makes exam papers from a specific course so useful12:41
grembleBecause it generally has a specific scope12:41
kulelu88getting them will be student driven12:41
MaNIunisa just don't want people to see all the mistakes in their exam papers :P12:48
grembleDo you know how many spelling and grammar errors I fix in exam papers?12:49
grembleI'm going to start to take a red pen in with me and mark the examiners spelling12:49
kulelu88nothing will get you more in their favour for a 49 can be made 50 by doing that ;)12:52
grembleHaha I don't get 49's12:52
gremble:P12:52
grembleIf you want to be as arrogant as I am, you at least have to perform12:53
elachecheCan you please taka a look at my UPDATED quesion in here → https://redd.it/3tb6ci16:39
